      I don’t like Tucker Carlson or Putin but the idea that Tucker Carlson would be platforming Putin is stupid. He’s the leader of Russia, he is his own platform. He can make a video and every news agency will show it and report on it. He doesn’t need a platform, he just inherently has one

      Elaborate on your position. You say he should not be platformed. I think people shouldn’t use hard drugs. However, I also don’t think we should criminalize drug possession or use.

        Not the previous user. Perfectly OK for Tucker to visit Putin and to interview him. Not ok for a media outlet to publish the interview. If you want a comparison, fine by me if you ruin your life with Fentanyl. Not ok if you’re selling it.
